(CONTINUED FROM PAGE O!«E) from the far east no actual move for a conference between the two giants of the east has been made since the Soviet Union has sent its ultimatum to China demanding an immediate conference, other than that suggested I>y foreign powers, notably the United States and Franco. China apparently went ahead with its plans to put the Chinese eastern railway under the complete control of the Chinese government. It was reported from Shanghai today that 300 more Randan citizens along tho railway line were arrested, charged with efforts to foment trouble against the Chinese republic. Although the dispatches did not say so, it was assumed here that the Russians were railway workers and officials. Fran Canton it was reported that the Kuomintang, the national party of China, had cabled the central government at Nanking urging it to de clare war upon the Soviet Union, promising, at the same time, to send three divisions from South China to the Manchurian frontier in the event of an upon declaration of hostilities. The government answer to the party plea hae not been made known. Peiping reports stated that the Manchurian provincial governors were mobilizing their forces with the idea of putting them at the command of the national government in the event of war. It was also reported from Peiping that. Chinese boats had been seized by Russians. The report of such a seizure had reached London before, but It was not known whether the same boats were involved.

SURVEY OF ARMY SYSTEM PLANNED WaHhington, July 24 —(U.R) - Shuly of the entire American army system, with a view to drastic changes and curtailments in the Interests of economy and tax reduction, will start soon. President Hoover and Secretary ot War Good have agreed on the necessity of a sweeping military investigation. and Good soon will announce appointment ot a board of prominent armv officers of the general staff to do this work. Carrying out the orders of Mr. Hoover, the commission will, according to United Press information, consider among others the following drastic proposals: 1— Extending the army aviation uid housing bills, so that the $200,000,000 involved will be spent over a 10 or 15-year period instead of within five years. 2— Possible abolition of the cavalry and coast artillery branches, now regarded by some persons as obsolescent. 3— Abandonment of many small forts in the Interior, originally built for Indian warfare. Congressional opposition to an.' drastic reduction was considered probable as congressmen are usually reluctant to abandon forts and activities in their own states. A proposal to abandon certain navy yards deemed out of date and useless for strategic purposes was rejected by congress several years ago because of protests from cities in which the yards were located.

Fresh impetus was given the movement for the outlawry of war by President Hoover's declaration on the eve of the proclamation ceremonies that lie proposed to seek drastic reductions in both army and navy budgets of the United States during the next four years. The spectre of war was further banished today by reports from China, Japan ami Russia indicating an easing of the diplomatic tension In the orient where a Sino-Russian clash over the Chinese-Eastern railroad lias threatened for 10 days. The Kellogg-Briand pact had its beginning In a proposal by Foreign Minister Briand, of France, on June 20, 1927, that the United States and France join in the treaty renouncing war between themselves. • Kellogg suggested, on Dec. 28, 1927, ; that the project be extended to all of ■ the principal powers. There followed a protracted series of exchanges ; on technical points and then an agree- . ment between France and the United States to submit alternative draft treaties to the other powers. The keynote of the Kellogg policy I was embodied in a note to Ambassador Claudel dated Feb. 27. 1928. in ■ which the United States declared: “From the broad standpoint of hu--1 manity and civilization, all war is an

assault upon the stability of human society and should be suppressed in . the common interest.” _ < j Only Russia among the principal ; world' powers, was not represented, at today's ceremonies. The Soviet! government has signified adherence to the pact but does not have diplo-, matic representatives in Washington. India. New Zealand. South Africa and Australia have also formally ratified i the covenant. Although accorded, legislative voice in international i»n-1 dertakings of the British common-, wealth, they have no separate diplomatic representatives in Washington.. Jajran, one of the signatory powers.] deposited its ratification before the ( proclamation ceremonies today, and Persia’s adherence, was deposited , yesterday.
